The next morning was painful. I slept in an awkward position so my back hurt. Then the "pretty" clothes Feliks got me left aching red lines on my hips, shoulders and ankles. I open-end my eyes to see darkness, and I assumed it was still night, but when the breakfast bell rang, I rolled over to see that I had just fallen asleep with my face in my pillow. The makeup he bought for me was smudging and itching. I had forgotten about that too. He made me by some accessories and make up that went along with the color scheme he decided looked best on me.

I slowly say up, stretching my back. Thinking it would be too hard to go to the bath room to change, I just pulled off the uncomfortable clothes and sighed leaning back down on my bed wearing just my underclothes. I could only hope that Killi doesn't wake up or that some one would come in with out knocking. They would find me and be blinded, I'm sure. I couldn't let anyone get blinded, so I got up to change into some regular clothes.

I put on some capri's and a blue tank top. I felt like it was going to be a warm day, so I didn't bother with anything more. I put my slippers on, because I love them, and went downstairs. I didn't think there would be that many people up because we had the day off. But no. All the girls (except Killi) and some guys were there. They were all sitting in the random assortment of seats in a circle-like shape talking.

I didn't want to interrupt there… what ever it was… so I just went over to get some candy. This candy table is my new best friend. Today, there is at least 10 more types of deliciousness added to the table. I took some starbursts and some Toblerone and tried to sneak away. I failed; they saw me.

"Hey Carolyn!" Jordanne called from across the circle. They all turned around to look at me, "You're supposed tone in this meeting."

"What meeting?" I asked, taking another step towards the stairs.

"This meeting, duh." Faith said.

"What's it for?" I asked.

"It's for those who are on the set up committee." Elizabeta said, "And girls who wanted to join in." she added.

"So what's the 'set up committee' and why am I on it?" I asked.

"It's the committee of people who are setting up things." Faith said. She tries so hard to be helpful… but she's not.

"If your job for the labor day party has anything to do with setting up seats, tables, decorations or cooking, then you're in this committee." Elizabeta clarified. She looked annoyed and I felt like I should sit down and listen to what they were doing. I sat on a three-legged stool behind Faith, Jordanne and Madeline. They talked for a while about were people were supposed to be, and how even though our jobs were over in the beginning, we had to stay the entire time. Gilbert and Alfred were the ones who were supposed to enforce us staying there. I'm not sure why we even have to stay. I guess it has something to do with all the teachers being in one place, so they don't want kids wandering off or something.

When they were done, I had finished my starbursts but I hadn't started the Toblerone. I quickly left before I could get topped into going to breakfast with everyone else. I also didn't want Feliks to see me not wearing the clothes he bought for me.

Back in my room I found Killi gone. I hadn't seen her leave, and she was here when I left. How do these people get in and out so sneakily? I want to know the secret passageways too! But it was probably me just not paying attention or something…

Anyway, I should put these clothes somewhere. Standing in the door way, I could see a my half of the room covered in colorful bags and tissue paper. I hadn't really brought many clothes, but my school uniform was what I would be wearing most of the time anyway. I was already getting tired of what I did to my uniform, and I wish I could re-do it and make it less… everything. It would be nice for it to be normal. Not that I like normal, but normal is comfy and I'm no longer happy with things that look good but are uncomfortable. Those clothes were the last straw for me on that topic.

Speaking (or thinking) or topics, WHAT DO I LOVE?! I still haven't figured it out, but I have ruled out fashion. Maybe I should work backwards. Just try everything until I can't stand it, and cross that off the list. Then when I get to something I can stand, I might end up liking it then loving it. That sounds like it would take too long. Maybe.

I could be like an intern to everyone. I could just follow them and find out what they love, and do that until I can find smote thing I like. Well, I could get through everyone and have 35 things I hate, and nothing I love. But how many things can there be? Maybe I will sort of like something, and it will lead to something that can help me make up my mind.

I need to make up my mind. Maybe this school isn't the best choice for me… but my best friend is here… the candy table… how can I like without that now that I know it exists? Also Matthew's pancakes! I couldn't live without those either. I haven't had them in a while too, I should see if I can get him to make them for breakfast tomorrow.

I was just standing in my doorway thinking. I should do something, yup, just do something now, and it will be good. I moved the decorations to a different part of the room, and noticed that I had bought extra twinkle lights. I would totally keep those.

Then I started to organize the new clothes into piles of "Can't ever wear", "Could possibly wear", and "Can wear regularly". The latter pile I took and put in drawer with my other clothes, and there weren't that many. I put the "Can't ever wear" in a bag to give away or make into something else later. The middle pile I folded and put back in the bags. I had an I sea for storing them.

I went down stairs to see if I could find some nails and string. The first floor was similar to the 3D art room in the way that it had a bunch of random stuff in it that could be made in to practically anything. I found them easily.

Back in my room, I used my pencil to poke two holes on either side of every bag on the sides without the store's logo. Then I strung the string through the lower hole of all the bags and the twinkle lights through the top one. I used the nails to hang up the light-bag-string thing across my side of the room. Then I went to the second storage closet and took a bunch of hangers.

I would put a piece of clothing on each hanger, and hang it under the bag that it was from. I had to take some from the "can never wear" pile to get one for each bag. To complete it, I pulled down the window shade, turned off the regular lights, and turned on the twinkles lights. The bags glowed and the light shone off the different materials of the clothes onto the ceiling. It was beautiful (and now I had an excuse not to wear those clothes!).
